In an ideal world, we could document the RAM requirements of an image (like headless or ubuntu-netbook) and the size of RAM of the targeted board in a hwpack, and use these information to decide the size of the swap. Adding swap might not sound complex, but it can either be a swap file or a separate partition, we will have to align the partition properly, mkswap it, lookup its UUID etc., things close to what we do.
In the mean time, I recommend that we document expected RAM requirements for each image, and request people to decide whether they need to pass --swap-size. I've added the ram_size informational field to the hardware packs v2 spec. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/680650 Title: fsck causes oops on xm because of no swap -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
